CARDENAS, Manuel; BURBANO, Víctor y ESPITIA, Erwin. Effects of a recreational-pedagogical program on coordinating capacities in school children. rev.udcaactual.divulg.cient. [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.1, e1047. Epub 26-Mayo-2019. ISSN 0123-4226. https://doi.org/10.31910/rudca.v22.n1.2019.1047.
The low levels of coordination diagnosed in children can affect their subsequent motor development and their academic performance; therefore, it is justified to formulate and evaluate intervention programs that improve their coordinative capacities. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of a pedagogical recreational program on the coordinative abilities of 64 male and female students aged between 6 and 7 years in a Colombian educational institution. In the research carried out, a quantitative cut-off methodology with a quasi-experimental-descriptive design was used; the information was collected by means of the Capón test, used before and after applying the designed recreational-pedagogical program. The processing of the data was done with free software R. The results allowed to establish that, on average, the differences between the scores accumulated between the pre-test and the post-test in the experimental group are significant and attributable to the aforementioned program. In conclusion, such a program does have positive effects on the coordinative abilities of the study participants.
